AI experts and those who work with the industry are particularly concerned with Election Day being less than a month away. With sophisticated AI technology becoming more accessible, instances of "deepfakes" and other misinformation are growing prevalent on social media, particularly as it relates to politics. "Congress has struggled to pass national technology laws," said Craig Albright, senior vice president for U.S. government relations at BSA |The Software Alliance. He noted there was an appetite among lawmakers for more action but added "it's also the case that Congress has really been almost entirely focused on things that are must-do. Like, keep the government open, increase the debt limit, reauthorize a program that helps keep the country safe from terrorists. And the tech policy has been in the ‘nice to do,’ category. … I think that's really been one of the main impediments."
